I've been struggling with this. Any tips?

Sounds like typical California legislation to me.

There is quite a bit of good information here, but the comparison being made is that all male run orgs are mismanaged.

It's divisive.

Too true.

Terrible management comes in all forms. Look at Stephanie Korey or Elizabeth Holmes.

>The strategy that Son and his all-male phalanx of managing partners followed seemed less about any specific technology than about placing large bets on the buzziest startups...

What does his staff being male have anything to do with how he runs his fund?

Here we go. A law meant to protect employees is going to lead to more unemployment. You see it with SF wait staff laws and now more and more places either don't hire wait staff or don't hire as many as they used to.

The state is off its rocker yet again

Got a confirmation code via sms the other day to confirm the set up of my account... that I never signed up.

Either a bot is making accounts, or Tik Tok got a list of phone numbers and is making accounts for people.

Salon.com... yuck.

What an echo chamber of millennial leftist garbage. I think Buzzfeed news is better journalism than Salon, and thats really saying something.

The author doesn't really seem to understand how serious it is though.
Wouldn't this just create more traffic? How are cars supposed to get from south of market to like... anywhere else in the city?

SF really loves to bike shed.
